Thanks for the hint, but I've tried that before posting on this list.
No go.
As a side question: Are more recent milo's ( such as 2.2.x ) still 
affected ? I seem to recall, that this has been fixed.

Anyway, I tried and it didn't solve my problem. To me, it seems that 
something alpha-specific has changed in recent kernels, that might break
milo's jump-to-kernel.

Has anybody successfully build and run a kernel, that meets the
following criteria:

1. Version >= 2.4.22 ( including -bk and -pre series and/or even
   2.6.0-test... )
2. Build using the "correct" alpha arch-type, instead on "Generic"
3. Is being loaded/started by Milo

Regards,
Thomas
